Some very interesting mammals were also seen in Kyrgyzstan particularly rodents. Undoubtedly highlight was seeing many Vinogradov’s (I think) Jerboas bouncing around on high plateaus at night, and an unexpected presumed Zaisan Mole Vole at its burrow.

Excellent 2 days birding superbly guided by @TarvoValker amidst beautiful wintry landscapes. Nice mix of woodland birds and some sea ducks, plus bonus of group of 5 Moose. Hawk Owl was standout highlight , but some memorable views of other species.

Hard to track down post monsoon but in the end managed to get great views of Green Avadavat in Mount Abu. Also brief glimpse of White-capped Bunting though still early in season. Bonus was ridiculously close view of sloth bear at a local temple. Beautiful place for birding.

A few days birding in Western Rajasthan. Special to see 5 Great Indian Bustard, but sadly this is around 5% of the entire remaining population mainly due to habitat destruction. Hoping conservation efforts will be enough but more awareness needed of their plight

Wet and cold visit to @BeddingtonFarm , missed most of the wader action first thing but good to see a nice male Whinchat , couple of wheatears , some yellow wags including another putative female type Flava and another Avocet which looks to be a different bird to last weeks.

After two decades of restoration delays at Beddington Farmlands, a new planning application has been submitted that seeks to exploit the BNG framework and legitimise past ecocide including the loss of the Tree Sparrow population. Please object via the link in the comments.

Around half an hour or so standing on a packed Cromer Pier this afternoon after teaching this weekend in Norfolk yielded some very nice flight views of at least three 1st cycle Caspian Gulls. @BirdGuides
